Sounds like you could add bumpers to the doors and drawers. Most hardware stores will have a variety of them. Rubber bumpers come in various styles (square, round) but you could also get them in felt. Felt also comes in small sheet you can cut up to the sizes you need. If you go that route, put the bumpers on the doors and drawer fronts, not on the cabinets...it looks a tad better that way.

go to b&q,they have just wot u need,they r like little hydraulic rods that prevent doors &drawers slamming,try the kitchen dept,they come in bags of about 8,you just screw them to the carcass of door or draw.

Heh. When I first got my amp for my electric guitar, I went to the nearest window and started shredding at max volume did I mention I was visiting my great grandparents in a retirement facility? I know how you feel...

any good mother/baby store should stocks something that stops drawers and cupboards from slamming,....these packs are used for when babies start walking and mothers don't want doors slamming on their fingers.

Little pads of stick on foam, only costs pennies. it is the thin end of the wedge mate, next he will be complaing about the sound of you going to the loo and switching the lights on and you will have to kneel down to pee and live in darkness.
